Look at that, a similar issue at Cowboys stadium was addressed after the stadium had been open: "According to Birdair, the reheating and re-welding of the seams is part of the stadium's final "punch list" — a list of "minor" issues that need to be addressed. A Birdair spokesman told News 8 that the issues are typical in large projects like this."

But hey, what would those guys know about what's typical in this type of project, they're only experts on it.

we're you involved in the build or something?

I personally consider leaking on anything that costs more than 500m 3 days before it opens to be a problem, I don't like the outside look of the stadium, although I will admit the pictures VFF posted from inside look great

I just think that for the amount of money they spent it should be finished on time and not have those ghastly spikes on the outside

I wanted to like it, I have no reason not too, but at this point I don't at all
